Synonyms: | 2,1-beta-D-fructan lyase (alpha-D-fructofuranose-beta-D-fructofuranose-1,2':2,3'-dianhydride-forming) activity, inulase II activity, inulin D-fructosyl-D-fructosyltransferase (1,2':2,3'-dianhydride-forming) activity, inulin D-fructosyl-D-fructosyltransferase (forming alpha-D-fructofuranose beta-D-fructofuranose 1,2':2,3'-dianhydride) activity, inulin fructotransferase (depolymerizing) activity, inulin fructotransferase (depolymerizing, difructofuranose-1,2':2,3'-dianhydride-forming) activity, inulin fructotransferase (DFA-III-producing) activity, inulinase II activity |
Definition: | Catalysis of the reaction: [(2->1)-beta-D-fructosyl](n) = [(2->1)-beta-D-fructosyl](n-1) + alpha-D-fructofuranose beta-D-fructofuranose 1,2':2,3'-dianhydride. This reaction is the production of alpha-D-fructofuranose beta-D-fructofuranose 1,2':2,3'-dianhydride (DFA III) by successively eliminating the diminishing (2->1)-beta-D-fructan (inulin) chain from the terminal D-fructosyl-D-fructosyl disaccharide. |
